After reading about the story of the young girl whose pictures and video of her brutal beating was made public, I went in search of the said Honourable Linus abaa Okorie. My intent was to give him a piece of my mind for doing a crappy job and further dehumanising this poor girl by not being thorough with his report and investigation.

But I was made to understand that the police and media houses plus house of reps have taken up the case and he was not at liberty to mention the names of the perpetrators in his initial writeup.

Below is excerpts from his Facebook page.

More update! This just came in

#‎justice4uzoamaka‬ :Scholarship for Uzoamaka

Thanks for the outpouring of support for the cause of justice for our jewel, Uzoamaka, has made the burden a lot easier to bear. For all those also criticizing and pressurizing, am also grateful; however, I cannot do otherwise or any less than I have done: this is me.
Meanwhile, I am exhilarated to announce the award of FULL SCHOLARSHIP TO UNIVERSITY LEVEL for Uzoamaka by a Godsent PHILANTHROPIST who has chosen to remain anonymous for now.
I shall, however, continue pleading to him/her to decide and take a date and the opportunity to announce this life changing gift to the public along with so many other dreamlike attachments that come along with the offer.
Who said that adversities are not the seeds of success. Can any one still question the bold but difficult decision to publicize the ordeals of our little queen.
Prayers and collective support and public advocacy for unimpaired justice remain our debt to Uzoamaka and eternal vigilance our responsibility to society.
ALUTA.... Honourable Linus Abaa Okorie

Thank you lala or whoever moved this to front page

So dis is d new trending news in naija, it will occupy media for awhile, then evrybody will back off, no headway. How was Ese Oruru case ended and many like that. Our futures are being molested by our past and passing present, don't just try to imagine wat these victims will grow to be

If it is true, let the F'king Hkn Linus be severely punished.

I need full gist of this story.

Power of the social media!

One of the best things that ever happened in the 21st century! It is the voice of the voiceless and the feet of the lame!

The worst place to be an orphan is in the hell hole call Nigeria. I pray she gets justice and better future,,,Amen

BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU AS A CHRISTIAN I WILL ACCEPT BUHARI'S SHARIA LAW IF IT CAN STONE FOOLISH PERSONS LIKE U.

Beaten for having sex......all these are distractions ,because of the dwindling economy, people tend to make something out of nothing...I ask God to please dash the perpetrators some sense , so they will realise that "foolishness is not a good virtue"

Following

Not like I'm in support of the treatment she got from her handlers...

But I'm curious... was she caught having sex or not... yes or no...?

yes... bigger media outlet are giving this girl a voice... but the boomerang effect... I fear alot of 15 year olds would join the fray... and we won't be able to do nothing about anything...

My opinion out what I feel is... this story should be underground... it don't need to be blown out of proportion...

get the perpetrators of the act... punish them... jail them... whatever... I don't give two cents about them... but the girl being pushed to be an image of underage sex is my fear... by our very poor media outlets and too many hungry bloggers willing to share the same story to push traffic to their blog site...

nairaland too should kill the news...

My two kobo...

we wont even be able to watch it because there will be no light...
